* CannotKillTheirLovedOnes: When [[Literature/ASongOfIceAndFire the Lannister family]] ends up in [[Literature/TheLordOfTheRings Middle-Earth]], and [[RoyalBrat Joffrey]] ends up betraying his family and bribing a [[OurGoblinsAreDifferent goblin]] army to restore him to the throne, taking over the Westerlands and taking his much kinder brother Tommen prisoner in the process, his uncle/[[BrotherSisterIncest father]] Jaime is instructed to [[OffingTheOffspring kill him]] and save Tommen. Despite Joffrey's AxCrazy tendencies, however, Jaime can't bring himself to kill his son. [[spoiler:Tommen, on the other hand, does kill his brother, allowing Jaime to take the blame for his sake.]]

* DeliberateValuesDissonance: No character from Middle Earth approves of Tywin's past methods upon learning of them, with none of the fear and begrudging respect for them he got in Westeros. A few even go so far as to compare the Sack of King's Landing and the murder of Elia Martell and her children to orc work; Denethor - no saint himself - is disgusted and enraged when he learns that Tywin had Tyrion's first wife gang-raped by his guards while having Jaime convince Tyrion (who was ForcedToWatch) that she was just a whore.
** And despite being perfectly intelligent, Eowyn is so naive to the idea of court intrigue that she doesn't even know what the word "subterfuge" means. That said, under Tyrion's tutelage, she learns quickly.
*** Eomer is likewise untutored in intrigue, but as Tywin internally notes, he's no fool, and he learns to navigate Westerlands politics very quickly - even if he hates doing so.

** Almost perversely, Forlong notes that pretty much no one he's met in Middle-Earth is particularly surprised or bothered by Jaime killing Aerys, on the grounds that Aerys was plainly insane and that an insane King deserves no loyalty. In fact, it's actually considered a genuinely ''heroic'' act by Jaime.

** Forlong seems at first to be primarily a comic relief support character, and a new friend for Jaime. However, he's also an exceptionally capable fighter beneath his BigFun exterior, and after the retaking of Casterly Rock and [[spoiler: the death of Joffrey, urges him to take the crown of the Westerlands as a method of atonement, because Tommen cannot be allowed to take the throne without risking divine wrath or generalised misfortune - though he accepts Jaime declaring Tywin as King of the Westerlands and himself as Crown Prince, muttering "close enough"]]. Afterwards, he muses that Gondor has greater warriors and commanders, so perhaps he was meant to go with Jaime, either by Denethor or by some higher power, to provide something else that Jaime would need - a friend.
* KnightInShiningArmour: Jaime goes from merely looking the part to actually acting something close to the part, with tales of his duel with the Witch-King at Osgiliath (which, while ultimately a losing fight, was epic) quickly spreading far and wide. [[spoiler: Maglor]], a witness to the fight and a survivor of the First Age, wistfully remarks that it reminded him of better days. After that and his campaign in the Westerlands, his fame spreads even further, with Forlong remarking that his men all but ready to force a crown onto Jaime's head.
* KnightInSourArmour: Sandor, who's given an impetus to fight by seeing the peace and tranquility of the Shire and essentially adopting it and the Hobbits as his MoralityPet.

* MiseryBuildsCharacter: Tywin begins to think so after his encounter with the Nazgul breaks him of a lot of his previous beliefs, with the examples of Tyrion (after his experience with one of the rings, he becomes Eowyn's political mentor, right hand man and something close to Hand of the King in Rohan) and Jaime (who bucks up his act and starts acting more like the KnightInShiningArmour he should be - albeit a pragmatic one). Had he known of Cersei's character development (driven by a hard life on the road, and a BreakTheHaughty experience with Galadriel), he'd probably think so even more.

** Tywin, while not "evil" in the greater sense, is still a harsh man, not inclined to mercy, and favours intimidation as a method of getting his way. Then he comes face to face with the Witch King, who shows him what true malice looks like. Earlier before, he was planning on striking a blow against Sauron for his affront against House Lannister in his typical manner. He gets told quite plainly that he could kill as many people as he wanted and Sauron wouldn't care; in fact, he'd probably just laugh at Tywin for trying.
